Complementary feeding involves introducing nutritious foods alongside breastfeeding, starting around 6 months of age to promote child health and development. Following key principles and attributes, such as practicing exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months and introducing diverse food options, is crucial. Safe food preparation, adequate nutrient content, meal frequency, and gradual food consistency adjustments are essential for successful complementary feeding. Monitoring energy intake, providing nutrient-rich foods from different food groups, and adapting feeding practices during and after illness are vital aspects. Starting complementary feeding at the appropriate age is important to meet the growing nutritional needs of infants.
